Remote flip security system - simplisafe?

Hi there

I am doing a flip that is about 2 hours away from where i life. We already had some tools stolen, so I am looking into ways to secure the property over night. Right now, my favorite is simplisafe. I wonder though how I should handle that from a distance. The property has no internet so I cannot get the cam and see what is going on there. What would I do when the alarm goes off in the middle of the night? I believe I would get a notification on my phone, but I would have no idea what is going on and the noise would only annoy the neighbors. 

How do others handle this type of situation?
